Bioshock [PC], Post 1

So when I first started playing the game I thought, wow this is a bit creepy and just generally weird. It felt kind of like a Half-Life mod but it’s bulit on the Unreal engine. So I played off and on for a few days since it came out and thought, “it’s a great game but 10/10 on some sites, 9.5/10??”. That was before tonight. I started playing even deeper into it and it really is a great game. It’s not your shoot’em up FPS game but for what it lacks in that sub-genre it makes up for, in all I can call, a new sub-genre of FPS. I like strategy FPS and some shooters but I despise the “sneak” type games. This really isn’t any of the above. It has a lot of elements of strategy with the lack of hard core shooting which many of the strategy FPS games still employ but it truly is it’s own genre of game play.
Anyway, this is post 1 of I have no idea how many. If you’ve been hesitant I hope that I’ve shed a little light on the game. The one thing that it lacks is multi-play, so if you buy games for MP you’ll probably not like this but it is a very in depth story and looks like it will last a while. Of course for me I have started to take time in games and do reloads for nice screen shots and videos of the game play. I’m still working on getting my YouTube videos up for the game that will include some walkthroughs.

Fantasy Football 2007

So the NFL season is upon us and kicking off later tonight! I figured I’d introduce my two fantasy teams now.
| BREWTALITY: | The Stewie Syndrome: |
| McNabb, Donovan QB PHI | Young, Vince TEN QB |
| McNair, Steve QB BAL | Schaub, Matt HOU QB |
| McGahee, Willis RB BAL | Alexander, Shaun SEA RB |
| Jones-Drew, Maurice RB JAC | Henry, Travis DEN RB |
| Henry, Chris RB TEN | Bell, Tatum DET RB |
| Norwood, Jerious RB ATL | Henry, Chris TEN RB |
| Bruce, Isaac WR STL | Owens, Terrell DAL WR |
| Evans, Lee WR BUF | Moss, Randy NEP WR |
| Curtis, Kevin WR PHI | Bruce, Isaac STL WR |
| Davis, Craig WR SD | |
| Mason, Derrick WR BAL | |
| Winslow, Kellen TE CLE | Miller, Heath PIT TE |
| McMichael, Randy TE STL | Crumpler, Alge ATL TE |
| Rackers, Neil K ARI | Rackers, Neil ARI PK |
| Bears, DST DST CHI | Panthers, Carolina CAR Def |
| Patriots, New England NEP Def |
I’d like to combine them in a few spots but I think both are solid depending on my backfield performance. If I had a pick for either, it’d be The Stewie Syndrome to go-all-the-way based on the mix of players. It will be an interesting team considering I went with 2 of the 3 biggest mouths at receiver but if TO does what’s done so far this year and performs as he did with Romo last year I’ll be happy (9 of his 13TD’s were with Romo). I’d also like to see Bell be impressive and get the nod through the season and Moss will probably not be in as much if that’s the case. I did make the mistake of going with Crumpler and not thinking of the Vick situation for him but we’ll see if Harrington has to unload quickly and that will may go back in his favor but I’m hoping Miller and the Steelers will have a huge year.
